Answer:
S(t) = 4.725t + 478.25
S(t) = 4.725(42)+478.25
S(t) = 676.7
Step-by-step explanation:
In the question, score is a function of time, that means time is the x-axis, while score is the y-axis.
Order the pairs to get:
(30,620) and (70, 809)
With these values, you use the the equation [tex]\frac{x2-x1}{y2-y1}[/tex] to get the slope m.
[tex]\frac{70-30}{809-620} = 4.725[/tex]
Use this equation and input any ordered pair to get the final function.
y-y1 = m(x-x1)
y-620 = 4.725x-141.75
y = 4.725x + 478.25
Replace x with t and y with S(t) to fit the x & y axis of the question.
